Author: Art Kleiner

Format: Hardback

Number of Pages: 428


The Age of Heretics is a magisterial cultural history of postwar business in which Art Kleiner shows how the corporate mavericks of the 1950s, 60s and 70s pioneered self-managing work teams, responsiveness to customers, grassroots organizing and other ways to imbue corporations with a sense of the value of human relationships. While protesters stormed the streets in the sixties, an equally radical group of corporate heretics was fighting for change within major corporations such as Shell Oil, General Foods, and Procter & Gamble.
